Pet owners are most concerned about ensuring their pets eat healthily. As of 1:00 AM on November 1st, pet food sales had surpassed the total sales record for the entire November 1st of last year. Among the top 10 best-selling items, pet staple foods occupied 7 spots: Acana Chicken-Flavored Grain-Free Cat Food, Solid Gold High Protein Grain-Free Chicken-Flavored Cat Food, Royal Canin Kitten K36, Myfoodie Adult Cat Salmon + Anchovy Cat Food, NetEase Yanxuan Complete Freeze-Dried Double Grain-Free Cat Food, and Pure&Natural Complete Lamb Cranberry Adult Dog Food.

Additionally, Homerun entered the top spot in grooming and daily care products, becoming a consumer's first choice.
